About Rotobec
Rotobec is a heavy-equipment attachment maker based in Sainte-Justine, Quebec, building grapples and cranes for forestry, scrap, waste, port and rail. Its forestry catalogue includes pulpwood grapples for roadside and mill-yard work.
Rotobec equipment
Rotobec grapples and cranes go on log loaders, material handlers and trucks.
What lenders look at
Attachments are reviewed with the carrier machine and the work behind it, such as logging, scrap or rail contracts.
Financing Rotobec equipment
Grapples are usually financed with the machine or truck; cranes may be financed with the truck body.
How Rotobec equipment financing works
Most Rotobec purchases are financed with an equipment loan or a lease. A loan gives you ownership from day one, with the lender registering a security interest (PPSA in Canada, UCC in the USA). A lease keeps title with the lessor and can lower the monthly payment, with a buyout, renewal or return option at the end.
Rotobec equipment we help finance
Financing Rotobec loaders
Loaders are financed for material handling across construction, agriculture and industrial yards. Lenders look at hours, tires or tracks, bucket and attachment packages, and how the machine will be used. Common sizes with broad resale demand are usually simpler to finance than specialized configurations.
Rotobec loaders on our eligible equipment list include Rotobec 5760 Log Loader, Rotobec 6060 Log Loader and Rotobec 8800 Log Loader.
What lenders check on a Rotobec loader
Lenders look at hours, component condition and the contracts or cutting rights behind the work. Forestry equipment is specialized, so lender appetite and terms vary more than for general construction machines.
Expect to provide a credit application, recent business bank statements, the dealer quote or bill of sale with serial number and hours, and financial statements or tax returns for larger amounts.

Tax treatment of Rotobec equipment
In Canada, the CCA class depends on the asset and how it is used. Your accountant can confirm the right class. With a loan, you generally claim capital cost allowance and deduct interest. With a true operating lease, lease payments are generally deductible instead. See the CRA classes of depreciable property. In the USA, Section 179 and bonus depreciation may apply; see IRS Publication 946. Always confirm with your accountant.
End-of-term options on a Rotobec lease
A $1 buyout lease is built for ownership: you keep the machine for a nominal amount at the end. A fair market value lease usually has a lower payment, and at the end you can buy the equipment at its market value, return it or upgrade. Read the return conditions, such as hour limits and wear standards, before you sign.
Who finances Rotobec equipment
Forestry: logging contractors, sawmills, land-clearing firms, road builders in resource areas and forestry service companies finance Rotobec equipment to take on new work, replace aging units or add capacity.
The right structure depends on how the equipment earns money. A machine tied to a long contract can support a longer term, while seasonal work may call for skip or seasonal payments that some lenders offer.
Questions to ask the dealer or seller before you finance
- What is the exact model year, serial number and hours?
- Is there a service history or recent inspection report?
- Is any warranty or extended coverage included, and does it transfer?
- Are attachments, delivery, installation and taxes itemized on the quote?
- For a private sale, is the equipment free of liens, and who will provide the bill of sale?
Insurance on financed Rotobec equipment
Lenders and lessors require the equipment to be insured for its replacement or financed value, with the lender named as loss payee, before funding. Some also ask for liability coverage. Getting an insurance quote early avoids last-minute delays.
